Wolfeboro is in the southern portion of Carroll county, 
New Hampshire. Has a population of about 3,000. Can 
be reached by the northern division of the Boston & Maine 
railroad and in summer by boats connecting at various 
points on Lake Winnipesaukee with the Boston & Maine 
railroad. Two beautiful lakes, Went worth and Winnipe- 
saukee, adjacent. Is 10 miles from Ossipee, the county seat, 
(24 miles by rail), 50 miles from Concord, the state capital, 
and 108 miles from Boston. Agriculture, lumbering and its 
entertainment of summer visitors make up its business. A 
box factory, a shoe factory, a woollen mill, an excelsior fac- 
tory and a plant for making axe handles are located in the 
town. Is a famous summer resort with good fishing and 
boating.

EARLY SETTLEMENT 

Although the permanent settlement of the town of 
Wolfborough, Wolfeboro as it is now spelled, began in 1768, 
the first attempt was made by Benjamin Blake and Reuben 
Libbey, 1767, but the breaking of Libbey's leg by a falling 
tree cost Wolfeboro a year of its history. Blake set the 
bone as well as he was able, constructed a shelter for Libbey, 
placed food and water near him and hurried to Gilmanton 
for aid. Returning in two days he found Libbey in torture 
from thirst and the annoyance of insects. Libbey pulled 
through however, liviDg to become one of the most promi- 
nent citizens of early Wolfeboro. Benjamin Blake was the 
first settler. 

In 1768, nine persons commenced settlements in the 
southwest part of Wolfeboro. They were Henry Rust, one 
of the proprietors, Benjamin Blake, Reuben Libbey, James 
Lucas, Samuel Tibbetts, Joseph Lary, Thomas Piper, 
Thomas Taylor and William Fullerton. None of this nine 
brought his family with him at that time* 

Henry Rust and Reuben Libbey were most active in the 



HISTORICAL 



11 



affairs of the new town. All of the settlers busied themselves 
with preparing homes in what was then a wilderness and in 
1773, Henry Rust had completed the handsomest house in 
town on the northerly shore of "Rust's Pond." Here he 
moved his family. He was known as ' 'Captain" from the 
fact that he was a ship builder and later as "Colonel" 
through military achievement. 

Reuben Libbey came from New Durham, bringing the 
first cows and the first horse. His marriage to Sarah, 
daughter of Widow Mary Fullerton, was the first in Wolfe- 
boro. Although illiterate, Libbey was a member of several 
boards of selectmen and in 1785 and 1794, went to the leg- 
islature. He served in the Rhode Island expedition in 1779. 
He was noted as a bear hunter. 

Seven persons took 50 acre lots in 1768 under the patro- 
nage of Paul March, one of the proprietors, who had agreed 
to have ten settlers in Wolfeboro by the following spring. 
James Lucas took the first lot and his brother Thomas was 
associated with him. Both had families. James was mod- 
erator of the first town meeting and Thomas a member of 
the first board of selectmen. They came from Suncook. 

Samuel Tebbets had the second lot. He was pound 
keeper for several years, millwright and framed the town 
meeting house. His son, Levi, married and raised a large 
family on the home farm. 

The third lot was settled by Joseph Lary, Joseph's wife 
carried the boards for roofing up grade for a mile. 

Thomas Piper, coming from Stratham, had the fourth 
lot. After two years he became the miller at "Mills," but 



12 



WOLFEBOKO 



afterwards returned to Wolfeboro where he lived until his 
death. He had seven children, Thomas, David, Samuel, 
Timothy, John, Mary and Susan. 

Thomas Taylor came from Gilraanton to take the fifth 
lot. His son, Wiggins Taylor, was the first male child to be 
born in Wolfeboro. 

Benjamin Blake took the sixth lot. With the aid of his 
robust wife, formerly Mary Connor, he built the first log 
house in the town. The property has never been out of the 
Blake family. 

William Fullerton had the seventh lot, but was drowned 
while crossing Smith's River a short time after his arrival. 
His widow, Mary Fullerton, raised eight children unaided on 
the property. Her name appears in the town inventory for 
many years after its settlement. 

These are the original settlers of Wolfeboro from whom 
many of the leading families of the town today proudly 
trace their descent. 

Ebenezer Meader was the first blacksmith. He brought 
the first pig to Wolfeboro. So essential was he to the set- 
tlers that the town hired Enoch Thomas to take Meader's 
place in the army. He had nine children. 

Interesting in the early history of the town, was the farm 
of Governor John Wentworth, the last provincial governor 
of New Hampshire. His dream of an English country seat 
in the province never came true, owning to the war, and its 
failure had much to do with arresting the progress of the 
town for many years. He began operations in 1768, and 
portions of the old manor house are still standing.

INCORPORATION 

In 1770 the proprietors of the town chose a committee 
of Henry Rust, A. R. Cutter and John Parker to apply to 
Gov. Wentworth for a charter. The application was made 
July 9, 1770, signed by Cutter and Parker, Capt. Rust being: 
absent on a sea voyage. The charter was granted by the 
governor August 21, 1770, and on the 28th day of Septem- 
ber of that year the first town meeting was held. James 
Lucas was elected moderator; Jotham Rindge, town clerk; 
Capt. Thomas Lucas, John Sinkler and Jacob Sceggel, 
selectmen; Thomas Taylor, constable; Benjamin Blake, Sam- 
uel Tebbetts, Aaron Frost and Benjamin Folsom, surveyors. 
These were the first officials of the new town. The officers 
for 1771 were: Thomas Lucas, moderator; John Flagg, 
town clerk; Thomas Lucas, Jacob Sceggel and John Sinkler, 
selectmen; Ithiel Clifford, constable; Benjamin Folsom and 
Samuel Tebbetts, surveyors; Benjamin Folsom and Thomas 
Piper, fence viewers; the same two as hog reeves. The offi- 
cers for 1772 were: Thomas Lucas, moderator; John Flagg, 
town clerk; John Flagg, Benjamin Folsom and Ithiel Clif- 
ford, selectmen; Andrew Wiggin, constable; Thomas Lucas, 
Ithiel Clifford and Jacob Sceggel, surveyors; Joseph Lary, 
Benjamin Folsom, James Lucas, Jr., hog reeves; Thomas 
Piper and Jacob Sceggel, fence viewers. In 1773 the officers 
were: Thomas Lucas, moderator: John Sinkler, town clerk; 
Benjamin Folsom, Thomas Taylor and James Conner, select- 
men; Joseph Lary, constable; Thomas Lucas, Benjamin Fol- 
som, surveyors; Thomas Piper and Benjamin Folsom, hog-

reeves; Benjamin Blake and George Woodhouse, fence view- 
ers; Thomas Piper and Jonathan Hersey, deer keepers. 
From this year on the town officers are given in another list. 
The seemingly minor officers are given at this early date, as 
they were at that time of greatest importance to the early 
settlers.

MILITARY HISTORY 

Wolfeboro's military history, like that of most New 
England towns, naturally divides itself into two distinct 
periods; the Revolution and the Civil War. Particularly 
significant in the progress of the new town was the Revolu- 
tion, for it caused the departure of Governor John Went- 
worth and the abandonement of operations upon his farm, 
the development of which promised such commercial success 
to Wolfeboro. The Civil War did not play such an import- 
ant part in the progressive history of Wolfeboro, though it 
had its sad importance to the town. 

THE REVOLUTION 

The sum of 5 pounds, 10 shillings, 8 pence was raised in 
1773, to purchase powder and ammunition for the town. 
This was done and the supply placed in the custody of Moses 
Ham, who delivered it to the authorities Nov. 15, 1775. 
Four young men of the town enlisted before the Battle of 
Bunker Hill, Jeremiah Gould, James Ludas, Ichabod Teb- 
betts and Moses Tebbetts. They fought with Capt. Benjamin 



24 



WOLFEBORO 



Pitman's company in the regiment of Col. Enoch Poor. 
Gould and the two Tebbetts served for several years. The 
following are Wolfeboro men who served: Benjamin Thomas, 
Thomas Bridges, Zachariah Bunker, Garrott Byron, Archi- 
bald Campbell, John Fullerton, Jeremiah Gould, James Ful- 
lerton, Moses Ham, Jonathan Lary, Joseph Leavitt, Reuben 
Libbey, James Lucas 3rd, John Lucas, Thomas Lucas, 
William Lucas, Samuel Mellows, David Piper, John Piper, 
William Rogers, John Sinkler, Jeremiah Sinkler, Thomas 
Sproule, Enoch Thomas, William Twombly, Ichabod Teb- 
betts, Moses Tebbetts, Andrew Wiggin, James Wiggin and 
Nathan Weston. So far as is actually known none of these 
was killed in the war, though Thomas Lucas never returned 
and nothing was ever heard ol him. The close of the war 
left the town very much impoverished. 

THE CIVIL WAR 

Wolfeboro played her part in the Civil War and furnished 
not only her quota of men, but also one heroic and pict- 
uresque figure, Major James R. Newell. Born in Brookfield, 
he enlisted in Wolfeboro. He was wounded several times, 
taken prisoner and escaped and after gallant service aided 
in the work of reconstruction. He died Mar. 1, 1880. The 
Wolfeboro G. A. R. Post No. 61, is named in his honor. 
Major William H. Trickey, Capt. Alvah S. Libbey and Capt. 
Albert J. Hersey are names which are closely associated with 
heroism in Wolfeboro's Civil War record. The men who 
enlisted from Wolfeboro with their regiments follow: First 
Infantry, John W. Fogg; Second Infantry, James Bresnehan;

WOLFEBORO'S CHURCHES 

Probably the first church in Wolfeboro was the Free 
Baptist, founded Oct. 19, 1792, at the house of William 
Rogers with eight members. A Congregational church was 
organized Nov. 25 of the same year, but later became 
extinct. John Snell, though not a minister, was an early 
preacher in the community.

WOLFEBORO 



FREE BAPTIST CHURCH 

This church was organized Oct. 19, 1792. Its first 
pastor was the Rev. Isaac Townsend who so continued for 
about 40 years. The present pastor, Rev. Allen Keith, has 
preached in the church since 1901, succeeding Rev. Allan M. 
Freeman. Starting with eight members, the church has now 
a membership of considerably over 100. The Sunday 
school, which is a strong one, was established in 1841, by B. 
F. Parker. The church building is at Wolleboro Falls, the 
present structure having been built in 1840. Some $2,500 
have been spent upon the edifice in the past eight years. * 

There is some conflict of opinion as to when the Second 
Free Baptist church was established, but it seems to have 
been about 1833, though some authorities claim an earlier 
date. At that time however, 17 members of the mother 
church withdrew to form the second church at East Wolfe- 
boro for local convenience. Rev. Yost has been pastor at 
the second church, which is now composed of Methodists and 
Baptists, for the past 20 years. 

CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 

In 1792, Nov. 25th, a Congregational church was organ- 
ized with eight members, but shortly died. On June 17, 
1834, the present church was formed, taking its beginning 
from the Sunday school established in 1823. Thomas Par- 
nell Beach was the first pastor and so remained for about 
two years and a half. The church owes its strength, how- 
ever, to the efforts of Rev. Jeremiah Blake, its next regular 
pastor. A $1,200 chapel was built in 1847. Rev. Charles 



HISTORICAL 



29 



E. Harris, the present pastor, came to the church in 1906. 

CHRISTIAN CHURCH 

Through the efforts of Elder Mark Fernald of Kittery, 
Me., a Christian church was founded in 1812, the third of 
January. There were six charter members and until 1838, 
Elder Mark Fernald was pastor. The present pastor, Rev. 
Wilioe J. Hall, came in 1907. The first church building was 
erected in 1838, but was replaced in 1858, by a more modern 
structure on Main street. 

ADVENTIST CHURCH 

The Adventist church was founded in 1890, and in 1891 
a chapel was built on Union street. This church has now a 
good membership. It has had but three pastors, Rev. Mark 
Stevens, Rev. E. A. Goodwin and Rev. W. F. Pottle, the 
present incumbent. 

UNITARIAN CHURCH 

Largely by the interest of Rev. S. C. Beane of Concord, 
the present Unitarian church was founded at a meeting on 
the Str. Lady of the Lake in 1882. There were 12 charter 
members. In 1887, the present handsome church was 
erected at a cost of about $ 6,000. The first pastor was 
Rev. Loren Benjamin Macdonald. At present, services are 
not held in the church, though it is expected that they will 
be renewed in the summer months of 1908.

WOLFEBORO 



CATHOLIC AND OTHER DENOMINATIONS 

There is a Catholic chapel in the town built in 1898. No 
services are held there now and there is no priest. The 
church is for the most part supported by the summer people 
Plans are on foot for the erection of a $4,000 church some- 
time during 1908. There is also a Christian Science society 
in Wolfeboro. There are a number of followers of spiritu- 
alism. 



SCHOOLS 

Andrew Collins, teacher and minister, held the first 
school in Wolfeboro in 1781. Isaiah Horne kept school in 
±782. Nathaniel Ambrose was the teacher in 1785, and 
from 1786 to 1790 there was no school in the town. The 
first division of the town into districts was made in 1790, 
Ambrose being in charge. The Wolfeboro and Tuftonboro 
academy was chartered in 1820, and is today the principal 
public school building of the town. It commenced opera- 
tions in September, 1821. It was managed by the town. In 
1866 it was known as the Christian Institute, but was 
reopened by the town in 1874 as a high school, so continu- 
ing until 1887, when the Brewster Free Academy commenced 
its career. According to the statute of 1899, providing for 
the payment of half the salary of a superintendent by the 
state for such groups of towns as should form school dis- 
tricts, Wolfeboro and Tuftonboro became the fifth district 



HISTORICAL 



31 



of the state. Henry R. Roberts was superintendent of 
school from 1903, when the division was made, until Sep- 
tember 1907. He was succeeded by Harry L. Moore, the 
present incumbent, and Alton was added to the school dis- 
trict. There are 14 schools in Wolfeboro. Four are in the 
old academy building, 2 at S. Wolfeboro and 2 at Wolfeboro 
Falls. These are graded schools. The others are remnants 
of the old district schools in the outlying rural districts. 
They are being closed as rapidly as circumstances will 
permit. 

BREWSTER FREE ACADEMY 

Brewster Free Academy, the only institution of its kind 
in the United States, was founded by John Brewster, a 
native of Wolfeboro, who died there Jan. 13, 1886. The 
charter of the academy is dated June 23, 1887. It opened 
the following September with Edwin H. Lord as principal. 
He died in February, 1907, and was succeeded by the present 
principal, Dr. Charles S. Murkland, former president of New 
Hampshire college. There are about 140 students enrolled. 
The academy ranks high. Is strong in athletics. The fac- 
ulty numbers eight beside the principal. Five bnildings are 
occupied. The institution is provided for by a $10,000 
anuuity from John Brewster's estate. It is governed by a 
board of 11 trustees and is a close corporation. 

BREWSTER LIBRARY 

The Brewster Library was first thrown open to the pub- 
lic in March 1890. It was established under the provisions 



32 



WOLFEBORO 



of John Brewster's will and is governed by trustees of the 
Brewster estate and of the town. It numbers about 4,000 
volumes.

Wolfeboro has had some prominent members of the bar. 
Chief among the earlier members were Zachariah Batchel- 
der, one of the first attorneys of the town; Joseph Farrar; 
William Copp Fox, noted as a poet, scholar, wit, and one of 
the shrewdest lawyers of New Hampshire in his time. Fox

INDUSTRIES OF WCLFEBORQ 

Wolfeboro's chief manufacturing interests are excelsior 
mills, a shoe factory, a box factory, sash and blind factory 
and a woolen mill, though the latter is not now running. 
There are three excelsior mills at Wolfeboro Falls, employ- 
ing about 40 men. The three use some 6,000 cords of wood 
yearly. The Hutchins plants have been established since 
1889. They ship to points east of the Mississippi river. 
0. P. Berry & Co., the third mill, ships in New England. 
They also make axe handles, the output being about 30doz. 
daily. The excelsior mill was established in 1899 and the 
axe handle factory in 1885. The sash and blind factory of 



34 



WOLFEBORO 



S. Leavitt & Son is also located at Wolfeboro Falls and has 
been running about 17 years. It employs three men. There 
is a steam laundry and carriage repair shop at Wolfeboro 
Falls. 

In Wolfeboro there is a branch of the Charles K. Fox 
Shoe Co. of Haverhill, Mass. This concern employes some 
110 people, has been running five years and has an output 
of about 1,000 pairs daily. A larger shoe factory was lo- 
cated nearby, but is now out of existence. A box factory 
employing 30 men which was established in 1851 by Moses 
and Augustus Varney, Alpheus 8wett and Benjamin Morri- 
son, is now owned and operated by Stephen W. Clow and 
Charles F. Piper. Sawed lumber and box shook are its 
products. 

The Wolfeborough Woolen Mills, incorporated in 1861, 
is located at So. Wolfeboro, but for some months has not 
been running. This concern manufactures blankets, em- 
ployes about 75 people and has an output of 40,000 annu- 
ally. 

These are the chief industries of Wolfeboro today. 
There are also several tanneries and brick yards nearby, but 
most of them are now extinct.

347.47 Jan. 1, 1898. Power is leased. The plant is under 
direction of the Board of Firewards. 

Water Plant— The water works are also owned and run 
by the town. The gravity system is in use, Beech Pond 
being the source of supply. The plant has been in opera- 
tion since 1889, has a $57,000 bonded debt, but is proving 
a success. 

Huggins Hospital— By private subscription, the largest 
donors being the heirs and descendants of John Huggins of 
New York, a native of Wolfeboro, the Huggins Hospital 
was established and dedicated Dec. 31, 1907. The sum of 
$30,000 was raised and part of it spent upon a cottage, the 
home of the hospital. The remainder is kept as a fund for 
the maintenance of the Institution. The hospital is gov- 
erned by a board of 15 trustees. There is no resident phy- 
sician, all the doctors of the town having service at the hos- 
pital. An effort is to be made shortly to have the name 
changed to Huggins Sanitarium, so that special diseases 
may be treated. The town supports a free room.

down to us from the days when those who are long since 
silent lived and worked in this region. A few missing sheets 
in the earlier town records tell their tale mutely of a past 
beyond recall. The names of Joseph Garland, Elder Went- 
worth Lord, Eliphalet Sias, John Wadleigh, John and Paul 
Canney, Daniel Smith, Nathaniel Ambrose, Benjamin Sceg- 
gel and others appear in the earliest town records, about 
1790. It is said that the first settler was John Wadleigh 
who came from London, and that Elder Wentworth Lord 
and Richard Beacham came about the same time, but just 
when this was is not known. Probably the settlement of 
Ossipee dates sometime between 1765 and 1770. It would 
be almost impossible to come nearer than that. It is known 
for a certainty that Moses Sceggel was the first white male 
child to be born in the town. But even the date of his birth 
is wrapped in obscurity. The marriage of Nathaniel Locke 
of Wakefield and Abigail Pitman of Ossipee, Mar. 19, 1803, 
was the first in Ossipee. Oct. 20, 1784, the petition for in- 
corporation was signed by Jacob Brown, Josiah Poland, 
Winthrop Smith, Andrew Folsom, John Sanderson, John 
Cooley, Joseph Ames, Noah Dow, Ebenezer Hall, Nathaniel

Brown, Joseph Pitman, Jabez Garland, Samuel Lear, Jacob 
Williams, John Scagel, Richard Beacham and Cornelius 
Dinsmore. So it is fair to suppose that many of these were 
among the first settlers. Some of their names appear upon 
subsequent town records. James Dearborn had a mill on 
Pine river which was first assessed in 1804, but Joseph Gar- 
land is said to have had the first mill, a primitive structure 
on Beech river near the Tuftonboro line. The first road was 
a line like affair cut with much difficulty through the virgin 
forest westerly past the meeting house. There was a 
through road built by the Masonian proprietors from the 
settled districts below to Conway. 



IN COUNTY AND STATE 

No town in County Carroll is more closely linked with 
the county itself than Ossipee, the county seat. Here is the 
court house and here too the county farm and in this town 
each great trial since the county has been organized has 
brought forth the greatest effort of the county's lawyers 
and has called inhabitants for miles around to the court 
house. 

In 1839, it became evident that the pressure of business 
and the extent of territory demanded the division of 
Strafford county. As early as 1807, the town records con- 
tain the following entry: "Voted not to send an agent to 
Ephriam Knight's on the last Monday of March about a 



40 



OSSIPEE 



proposed new county." From this it can be seen that the 
question was one of interest for over 30 years before any 
action was taken. In 1838, the town voted in favor of the 
bill before the legislature for the division of the county. 
The result of this agitation was legislation and December 
23, 1840, the legislature's act providing for the establish- 
ment of Carroll and Belknap counties was approved. The 
act says: "the said county of Carroll shall include all the 
lands and waters included within the following towns and 
places, which now constitute a part of the county of Straf- 
ford, to wit: Albany, Brookfield, Chatham, Conway, Eaton, 
Effingham, Freedom, Moultonborough, Sandwich, Tam- 
worth, Tuftonborough, Ossipee, Wakefield and Wolfe- 
borough, and the said towns be, and the same are hereby, 
severed and disannexed from the county of Strafford." 

The legislative act of Jan. 5, 1853, disannexed Bartlett, 
Jackson and Hart's Location from the county of Coos and 
annexed them to Carroll county. 

The county of which Ossipee is the county seat contains 
an area of nearly six hundred square miles. It was named 
in honor of Charles Carroll of Carroliton, one of the most 
distinguished signers of the Declaration of Independence. 

Ossipee's plans to be prepared for the county seat are 
due to the far-sightedness of Asa Beacham, a member of the 
Strafford county delegation from Ossipee in 1839. It was 
decided by this delegation to build a court house in the 
northern part of the county. The decision was reached on 
Saturday and adjournment taken until the following Mon- 
day at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Mr. Beacham, realizing 



HISTORICAL 



41 



that the town who offered the most would secure the loca- 
tion, started on a drive for Ossipee. He returned Monday 
just in time for the adjourned session, took before the dele- 
gation an |850 subscription to be used in the erection of a 
court house, which he had raised in Ossipee, and secured the 
location. There were no other offers made. So Ossipee 
attained its county prominence. 

The court house was built in time for the April term of 
court 1840. The court house is ol frame with the exception 
of two brick wings, one built in 1856 and the other in 1877, 
for the safe keeping of records. It is two stories high, con- 
tains a court room forty-five by forty feet, offices for the 
registers of deeds and probate, clerk of the court, county 
clerk and county commissioners. About 1889, another 
addition was made to the rear of the court house. Here 
jury rooms, a judge's room, law library and attorneys' rooms 
were built. The law library is the property of the Carroll 
County Bar Association and contains the standard reference 
works. 

In 1855, the board of county commissioners was created. 
They purchased in 1869, two farms of 250 acres for a county 
farm, located about a mile above the Ossipee depot. This 
is now used as a site for the poor farm, county jail and 
insane inmates. Ossipee contributed $1,000 of the $5,000 
used in the purchase. In 1870 a two and a half story house 
with a three story Land a two story woodshed, the upper part 
of which is used as an insane ward, was erected. A $6,000 
barn built in 1874, was burned ten years later by an Indian 
lad who wanted to see the cattle jump at the fire. The 



42 



OSSIPEE 



present barn was completed in 1885. The jail, brick, with 
four double cells, was built in 1871. The superintendent of 
the poor farm is also the jailer. Thomas Nute was ths first 
superintendent. He held the office one year. Sias M. Giles, 
three years, (died in office); Jacob Manson, three years; 
Porter Philbrick, three years; W. A. Sherburne, three years; 
Jacob Manson, 1884-1895, (died in office); Frank Melloon, 
the present incumbent, took office in the spring of 1895. 

Ossipee's sons have had their parts to play in state 
affairs. They have been: Samuel Quarles, state councillor, 
1814-16; Samuel Quarles, state senator, 1810-12; Ezekiel 
Went worth, state senator, 1829-30. County officials and 
court officials from Ossipee have been: Samuel Quarles, C. J.

BRIEF BITS ABOUT OSSIPEE 

Was originally called New Garden, but incorporated Feb. 
22, 1785, under the name of Ossipee. 

Dan Hole, a pioneer hunter and trapper, after whom 
Dan Hole pond is named, was probably the first white man 
in the region. He was not, however, a settler. 

A burying ground and ruins of ancient cellars near Cen- 
ter Ossipee tell of settlements here before the records of the 
town or earlier Masonian Proprietors confirm them. 

First inventory taken in 1802. Dr. Moses Colby was 
probably the first physician, about 1790. First town pau- 
per taken care of in 1803.

OSSIPEE'S INDUSTRIES 

Where formerly a number of mills and manufacturies 
existed at various times in the town of Ossipee, today there 
are few. Three concerns employing about 75 people now 
make up the industrial portion of the town. One of these. 
The G. W. Bent & Co.'s factory, is located at Moulton ville, 



HISTORICAL 



49 



another the Charles Smart mill, at Center Ossipee and the 
third, the J. C. Pike mill, on the Pine river lot. 

The G. W. Bent & Co. concern is the largest in Ossipee. 
Beds, cot, spring and cabinet, morris chairs and house fin- 
ishings are manufactured. There is also an excelsior mill in 
connection. The factory employes an average of 40 men 
throughout the year. In the excelsior mill from 800 to 
1,000 cords of poplar are used yearly. About 1,000,000 
feet of lumber is used in the bed factory. They ship through- 
out New England and are a branch of G. W. Bent & Co. of 
Boston. The plant was founded by John Moulton, but was 
constructed upon its present scale by L. D. Moulton, his son, 
in 1868. A stock company was formed in 1890 and G. W. 
Bent leased the plant from them. In 1903, he purchased 
the property outright and now owns it. 

J. C. Pike operates the most extensive lumber plant in 
the town. His mill was established by him in 1888, and 
since then has been in a most flourishing condition. The 
annual output is in the neighborhood of 3,000,000 feet 
yearly. He employes some 25 men on the average. Massa- 
chusetts, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey and Pennsyl- 
vania are his chief shipping points. 

Charles Smart operates a sash, door and blind factory 
and saw mill in Center Ossipee. He employes in the neigh- 
borhood of ten men. His shipping points are largely local. 
The plant has been in operation for a number of years. 

In days gone by Ossipee has had woollen mills, tan- 
neries and other examples of commercial prowess, Fire and 
lack of demand for the smaller manufacturer has driven 
these out of existence.

SCHOOLS OP OSSIPEE. 

Mention is first made of the school system of Ossipee in 
a town meeting Oct. 6, 1803. It was then decided to 
accept the division of the town into districts as made by a 
committee appointed for this purpose. There is no record 
of any division of schools earlier than this, though from 
mention in the town records it is evident that Ossipee had 
some system for the instruction of her young, prior to 1795, 
when this entry is found: "Voted, that those parts of the 
Town that have not had the benifit of the School in times 
past, Shall have their proportion out of the other parts 
that have had the benifit of it." In 1818, there were 15 
school districts. At present there are 14 schools in the 
town, though actually but 12, as two of the schools alter- 
nate their winter and spring terms. The town schools are 
governed by a school committee consisting of Charles A. 
White, Charles A. Wiggin and Harry P. Smart. It is under- 
stood that an effort will be made this year to place the town 
in a state district, thus securing the services of a superin- 
tendent with state aid. 



OSSIPEE'S CHURCHES 

Today in Ossipee at what is commonly known as "Ossi- 
pee Corner," there stands the old meeting house of the town, 
the house which was built between 1801 and 1803, and this 



HISTORICAL 



51 



is now used as a church by the Methodists and other denom- 
inations. There is no doubt but that this was the first 
building used for religiaus services in the town. But it was 
not the first church. This honor belongs to the First Con- 
gregational church, organized through the efforts of Rev. 
Samuel Hidden of Tam worth in 1806. There is a later 
church at Moultonviile organized about 1866. Arrange- 
ments were made to secure a preacher in Ossipee as early as 
1791, and later Elder Wentworth Lord did some ministerial 
work in the community. No other records of a regular 
preacher are now in existence. 

THE F!RST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 

Rev. James Thurston, evidently a missionary in the new 
settlements, wrote a letter to Rev. Samuel Hidden of Tam- 
worth about 1 804 or 1805, advising the organization of a 
church in Ossipee. Although certain to decrease his own 
membership to a great degree, Rev. Hidden entered into the 
idea with enthusiasm, with the result that Sept. 27, 1806, a 
meeting was held in Ossipee at the house of a settler. There 
were members of Hidden's church and members of other 
denominations present. The church was thus organized 
and for several years held meetings at various homes in the 
community. Dec. 25, 1825, the society was organized and 
plans laid to buy land and erect a church building. The 
first tree for the church was felled in May, 1827, and the 
following January the church was dedicated. The first 
pastor was Rev. Samuel Arnold, ordained and installed in 
1829. His pastorate was short. In this year, 1829, a 



52 



OSSIPEE 



fifty acre farm was bought and a house upon it for a par 
sonage. That building still stands a little way below the 
church, but in 1874, the rest of the farm was purchased and 
the present parsonage erected. At the time of organization 
there were 20 members. Since that time there have been 
over twice the number, but the erection of other churches in 
localities more convenient locally, has caused a lessening in 
the membership. The present number is 32. The church 
has a strong Sunday school in connection. Sept. 27, 1906, 
the centennial celebration was held. The present pastor is 
Rev. Vincent Moses. Mrs. C. H. Smart is clerk and Mrs. A. 
A, Moulton superintendent of the Sunday school. 

METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH 

Though the youngest church in the community this is a 
strong and healthy religious institution organized through 
the efforts of L. D. Moulton, one of the leading citizens of 
Moultonville in about 1864. John J. Wiggin held a class 
meeting in 1864, which established the organization of the 
church and in 1865 Mr. Moulton purchased the Free Baptist 
church building at Center Ossipee and moved it to Moul- 
tonville. The corner stone was laid in that year, Rev. A. I. 
Church and Rev. A. L. Kendall assisting. Jan. 30, 1866, 
the church was dedicated by Rev. E. Adams, presiding elder 
of the Concord district, and the work of the church placed in 
the hands of Rev. G. W. Cass of South Tamworth for the 
time being. When the 37th New Hampshire Conference met 
April 11, 1866, the church had 30 members and 74 proba- 
tioners. The first quarterly conference was held May 14,

1866. Here the following officers were chosen: Daniel Mer- 
row, Abner Goldsmith, Moses Merrill, Daniel Tibbetts, 
George B. Sias, S. P. Wallace, Erastus C. Folsom and T. K. 
Shannon, stewards; L. D. Moulton, Daniel Merrow, Daniel 
Tibbetts, Charles Nason and John Moulton, trustees; John 
G. Wiggin, Benj. F. Abbott, class leaders. A Sunday school 
with 80 members was soon organized. Rev. Geo. W. Carr, 
1866-69, was the first pastor. Rev. Frederick H. Corson is 
the present pastor. 

The Bullock Church, so called, was an offshoot of the 
Freewill Baptist church, and had an organization for some 
20 years following 1856. Its pastor was Rev. J. Bullock. 
It controlled and occupied the old church at Leighton's 
Corners but the organization is practically extinct. 

The Second Freewill Baptist Church (Chickville) , was 
organized through the efforts of Elder John Chick. He suc- 
ceeded in building up a large and strong church about 1836. 
After some years it was found impossible to maintain a 
pastor and the ministrations to this society were made from 
the Water Village church. 

The Third Freewill Baptist Church was maintained for 
some years but has long since passed into history. 

The First Freewill Baptist Church sprang from a 
branch of the "Church of Christ," beginning its active 
efforts about 1806. During the summer of 1807 several 
were baptised, among whom were the following: Seth Fogg, 
Jno. Goudy, Peggy Leighton, Martha Hodsdon, Ebenezer 
Tasker, and Sally Kelley. During the year 1808 eighteen 
more were baptised. Their house of worship, referred to as 



54 



OSSIPEE 



the "old church" was built about 1818 and the "new church" 
about 1856, near Leighton's Corners. After the "new 
church" was erected the First Ossipee Church met and dis- 
banded and a new organization was formed on Freewill Bap- 
tist principles and called "The First Ossipee and Wakefield 
Church." Like so many other of our formerly flourishing 
societies this one has now gone into decline and active 
efforts have for some time ceased. 

Among the more active as Elders and Pastors have been

20 years increased to 70. The society owns a good church 
building and parsonage. Among the pastors who have 
served this church have been the following; Revs. E. G. York, 
H. P. Mansur, A. D. Fairbanks, D. W. Dealtry, W. H. Ward, 
S. J. Gould, N. A. Avery, M. P. Tobey, and John Walker. 
There is no resident pastor for this year recorded. 



MILITARY MATTERS 

The War of the Revolution was too early an event to 
allow many of the settlers of Ossipee to have a part as citi- 
zens of this town. Several of them were in the Revolution- 
ary Army, serving other towns. 

There w 7 as also a goodly number of the citizens of Ossi- 
pee in the service in the War of 1812-14. 

The people of the town of Ossipee may be justly proud 
of the part her hardy and patriotic sons played in the great 
tragedy enacted in the south during the awfnl four years of 
sectional struggle of 1861-65. It will be useless for us in 
our weak way to praise the men who gave their lives or 
risked them, and equally useless to praise the town whose 
sterling qualities and spirit sent them forth to serve their 
country. But it is sufficient to say that the records we have 
had access to show that nearly 170 sons of Ossipee were 
enlisted in the service in the War of the Rebellion. We give 
below the names of these men as completely as we have been 
able to secure them.

Histony of Effingham 



Effingham lies between Ossipee Center and Freedom, 
having stage connections with East Wakefield. Its popu- 
lation is in the neighborhood of 600, scattered over five 
villages, Effingham, Center Effingham, Effingham Falls, 
South Effingham and Pine Kiver. The town is northeast 
from Concord 70 miles and six miles from Ossipee. Its orig- 
inal name was Leavitt's Town and it is the parent town of 
Freedom. The interests are largely agricultural, though 
there are two saw mills. It was at one time an educational 
center, claiming the first normal school in the United States. 



EARLY SETTLEMENT 

Effingham, originally Leavitt's Town, was contained in 
a grant made by the Masonian Proprietors June 28, 1749. 
Additions were made to this grant Dec. 20, 1749, the origi- 
nal holders being Nathaniel Gookin, Thomas Marston, Sam- 
uel Marston, John Leavitt, Thomas Parsons and seventy- 
four others. The boundaries were as follows: "Commencing 



HISTORICAL 



59 



at the Province line at the head of a township granted to 
John Ham and others, near Province Pond, so called, then 
on said Ham's head line two and one third miles, then north 
42° west 7 miles, then north 48° east to the Province line, 
then on said line to the first mentioned bounds." 

James C. Dearborn of Stratham was the first settler, 
cominginl768. He settled near the old Hobbsfarm. Dear- 
born was there about a year when other settlers commenced 
to move in. Walter Avery was the next comer and at about 
the same time William Palmer took a lot near Lord's Hill. 
He came from Rye. A Mr. Dow came next from New Market 
and with him a Mr. Hilton. James Titcomb from Exeter 
had his home in what is now the land beyond Durgin's pas- 
ture. All of these came about 17 68-80. Other settlers were: 
Coffin Page, Thomas Parsons, Weare Drake, one of the most 
prominent men of the early history of the town, Captain 
John Leavitt, Benjamin and Asahel Dearbon, Carr and Jere- 
miah Leavitt, Jeremiah Marston, the two Lampreys, Nathan 
Brown, Jonathan and Morris Hobbs, Joseph Palmer and 
John Drake. All of these men came before the Revolution. 
In 1775, there were 83 inhabitants. 

Before The town was incorporated Aug. 15, 1778 as 
Effingham, but long before this the early proprietors held 
meetings, elected officers and did the business of the town. 

The town was among the most prosperous in its vicinity 
during the years before the Revolution. The settlers were 
for the most part interested in clearing their land, getting 
as good roads as possible, raising some grain and caring for 
the poor. These were the questions that seemed uppermost 



60 



EFFINGHAM 



in their minds from the records of early proprietary meet- 
ings. Later, with the incorporation of the town, the busy 
days of the Revolution, they had troubles of a different 
nature on their hands. 



PROFESSIONAL MEN 

Doctors— Dr. William Taylor was the first physician to 
practice regularly in the town. He came to Effingham 
about 1785, remaining until 1800. His brother, Dr. Benja- 
min Taylor, practiced in the town from 1802 to 1809. 
Other early physicians were Erastus Freeman, 1805-07; Dr. 
Tibbetts, 1805; Dr. Chellis, 1805; Dr. Theophilus Doe, 1818; 
David Libby, 1817-20; Dr. David Weld Clark, 1802, 1819- 
46; Dr. Ebenezer Wilkinson, 1828-36; Dr. David W. Stick- 
ney, 1838 and a number of others. Among the physicians 
born in Effingham who have practiced there and elsewhere 
are Dr. A. Dearborn, born 1798, died 1848; Dr. C. L. Drake, 
born 1798, died 1869; Dr. Joseph Huntress, Dr. Joseph H. 
Warren, Drs. Geo. W. and Frank T. Lougee, Drs. 0. M. and 
T. N. Drake and Dr. Starr Barker. Dr. James M. Leavitt 
was born in Effingham July 26, 1852. He is a member of 
the class of '78, Bowdoin Medical School and since gradua- 
tion has been in practice at Lord's Hill. Dr. Albert N. 
Gould, a member of the class of '72, Dartmouth Medical 
School, has practiced in Center Effingham since 1875. 



HISTOKICAL

Samuel Q. Dearborn, Dartmouth '60, read law with his 
father and also with Hon. Daniel M. Christie. Since his 
admission to the bar he has practiced to a certain extent in 
Effingham. He is the only lawyer in the community. 



EFFINGHAM CHURCHES 

An historical review of the churches of Effingham is 
fraught with much interest. The erection of the first meet- 
ing house, now standing, brought forth a bitter controversy 
among the pioneer inhabitants as to location. Squire Lord 
ran a tavern on Lord's Hill and was anxious to have the 
meeting house in front of his hostelry. Other members of 
the community wanted it elsewhere. The result was a dead- 
lock and for a dozen meetings or so no location could be 
fixed. As neither party would recede from their position, 
disinterested persons were called in and fixed the location in 
front of Squire Lord's house. The house was built in 1798. 
Mar. 15, 1797, the following charge is recorded in the treas- 
urer's book: "pay Isaac Lord for attendance, rum and vict- 
ualling committee to fix place for meeting house." 

Mr. John Adams was the first preacher in the town, 
Effingham uniting in 1780 with other towns for his support. 
He received six bushels of corn per Sabbath, the meetings 
being held at Weare Drake's house.

EFFINGHAM 



CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 

This church was the first organized, dating its birth 
from 1798. It was the outgrowth of Mr. Adams' work and 
of Eev. Mr. Balch who preached in the town in 1788. Rev. 
Samuel Hidden was the real organizer, a Tarn worth minister 
whose work was paramount in the early church development 
of all Carroll county. The church is now without a regular 
pastor or services and has so been for several years. 

FREE BAPTIST CHURCH 

This is now the only church in active existence in Effing- 
ham. It is located at Effingham Falls, Rev. J. W. Farrell 
being the pastor. The church was organized in 1825, Feb. 
9, though it was the outgrowth of a religious revival of 
1824. Joseph Davis was ordained July 1, 1824, and be- 
came the first pastor of the new church. The first house of 
worship, "The Davis Meeting House," was built in 1833, 
and, although it has undergone some repairs, is still stand- 
ing and in use. The church has a large attendance and 
good membership. Regular services are held. 



The Second Free Baptist Church at Lords's Hill was or- 
ganized in 1838 and is now extinct, as is the third church at 
Effingham Falls, organized in 1842. 

CALVINIST BAPTIST CHURCH 

This church, located at Drake's Corner (Center Effing- 
ham) was founded August 22, 1807, by Rev. Wentworth 



HISTORICAL 



63 



Lord, Parsonsfield, Me. It was organized at the house of 
Jacob Mills with 32 original members. The first church was 
built in 1822, replaced by a new one in 1844, this being re- 
modeled in 1880. The first pastor was Rev. Levi Chadborn. 
The church now holds summer services only. 



There is a society of Adventists who hold irregular meet 
ings in Effingham. 



EFFINGHAM SCHOOLS 

From almost the beginning of the town, schools were 
among the heart interests of the inhabitants. The educa- 
tional history of Effingham is most interesting. Chief in its 
account stands forth the claim that Effingham had the first 
normal school in this conntry. 

Before the town was incorporated the clearing of a 
school lot commenced in 1770, one lot being set aside by the 
charter of the proprietors. The following vote shows the 
spirit of the town, taken from the town records about 1785 
or 86: 

"VOTED— To have a school; and that the master of 
said school shall find himself. Likewise Voted— that it shall 
be an English school. Voted— a school master to have 16 
bu. of corn for month for what time he shall keep as a 
school master ought to; And That said corn shall be deliv- 



64 



EFFINGHAM 



ered at Nathaniel Hobbs house in said town within three 
months after the 15th day of June next. Likewise— that 
Capt. John Taylor be hired to keep said school during the 
term of three months." 

There is no explanation given of the term "English 
school," but the supposition is that nothing but English, in 
the languages, was taught. At the same meeting, probably 
May 16, 1786, it was voted to build a school house "18 ft. 
x 24 ft., to stand on the northeasterly corner of Josiah 
Wedgwood's land." This was the first school house in 
town and was built on the identical spot where the school- 
house at Center Effingham stands today. A year or so 
later there was a school house built at Drake's Corner, and 
shortly after a third near the old John Bryant place. In 
1795 there were five districts in the town. Now there are 
seven schools in the town. 

Higher education came early. In 1836 the Weare 
Drake's store building became an academy, and a school, 
the Carroll Literary Institute was organized. This was 
successful for several years. In the fall the New England 
Masonic Charitable Institute opened in Masonic Temple. 
There were 55 pupils the first term. Rev. Elbridge Pepper 
was the first principal. There were 180 pupils the second 
year. Orphan children of Masons were admitted free. There 
has been no school there for a quarter of a century. 

In 1819 the Effingham Union Academy was established 
and in 1830 James W. Bradbury came to the institution as 
principal from Parsonsfield, Me., on the condition that the 
school should be "for the instruction and training of teach- 



HISTORICAL 



65 



ers." This is said to be the first normal school in the 
country. The idea was Mr. Bradbury's own and proved 
successful. It so continued until 1845 when its existence 
ended. The building is now used as a school house. 

This is the history of the schools of Effingham, probably 
as unusual and interesting as any town in New England. 
Today, though there are no academies, the town schools 
are of the highest order and efficiency. The present school 
committee: Sherman N. Cutting, William M. Fulton and Eu- 
gene S. Tewksbury. 



EFFINGHAM'S INDUSTRIES 

There are three sawmills in Effingham, all that remains 
today of what was once a reasonably prosperous iron town 
with a wool carding mill also. The John L. Demeritt mill 
at the Outlet was established by the present owner about 
1881. The mill saws about 300,000 feet of lumber yearly 
and employes five men. Its shipping points are local. John 
Chase's mill was established about 1800 and is one of the 
first industries of the kind in Effingham. This mill saws in 
the neighborhood of 250,000 feet of lumber annually and 
employes from four to five men. Shipping points local. The 
I. S. Drake mill is near Centerville and does work largely for 
local consumption.

History of Tuftonbono 



EARLY SETTLEMENT 

Tuftonboro was not settled generally until after the 
turmoil of the Revolution had died down and the country 
was in a state of peace. Though granted to John Tufton 
Mason by the Masonian proprietors sometime in the 1760s, 
the exact date of the grant is not known. It is certain, 
however, that after the grant no efforts were made to settle 
the tract. A large part of the land on which the town now 
stands was acquired by Woodbury Langdon through pur- 
chase just before the Revolution. That he was instrumental 
in securing the settlement of the town is generally believed, 
as records are known to have existed in w T hich grants have 
been given by Langdon to men whose names appear in the 
first inventory of the town. Statements conflict as to the 
number of inhabitants that the tow T n had. In 1788, the 
first inventory of the town shows that 13 persons lived 
there, Phineas Graves, Benjamin Bean, Edward Moody, 
Obadiah Brown, William C. Warren, Hanson Libbey, Jona- 
than Brown, James Whitehouse, William Melling, Elisha 
Abbott, Benjamin Young and Grafton Nutter. A petition 
to exempt the town from a tax for not furnishing two 
soldiers during the war was made in 1789, the ground being 
taken that at the time the soldiers were wanted, the town 



HISTORICAL 



75 



was uninhabited and that in that year, 1789, there were but 
five residents in the town. The chief conflict in testimony 
comes from the fact that in 1790, there were 109 residents 
of Tuftonboro. The accepted opinion is that the 13 men in 
the first inventory were the first settlers of Tuftonboro, and 
that they made their settlement between 1780 and 1785. It 
is an established fact that the town of Tuftonboro was the 
latest settlement in the surrounding country. The state- 
ment is upheld by record that the town was incorporated 
about 15 years after its settlement, which would fix the date 
of settlement in 1781. There is no record of proprietors' 
meetings. 



TUFTONBORO CHURCHES 

In the year 1800, with the establishment of a Congrega- 
tional church in Tuftonboro, the church history of the town 
begins, though this church had but a short existence. Rev. 
Joseph Kellum was the first minister, a Methodist. Ulti- 
mately this church became merged with the Methodist 
church now in existence. Another Congregational church 
was organized by Nathaniel Bickford several years later, 
buthad only a short life. 

METHODIST CHURCH 

Caleb Dustin preached the first Methodist sermon in the 
town in 1804 in a private house, known as the "Peavey 



76 



TUFTONBORO 



House." In 1805, Tuftonboro was added to the New Eng- 
land Conference and Lewis Bates was established in charge 
of the portion of the circuit embracing the town. John 
Brodhead was the first presiding elder. The first church 
was built in 1820, and has since been remodelled. At pres- 
ent the Rev. Frederick H. Corson of Moultonville conducts 
services during the afternoon each Sunday. 

FREE BAPTIST 

This church, located in Melvin Village, was organized 
Oct. 16, 1837, with 25 members by Rev. William Buzzell. 
Peter Stackpole was the first clerk and Richard Caverly the 
first deacon. Rev. Buzzell remained for two years. Between 
1845 and 1852, the church became almost extinct. This 
necessitated a reorganization in June, 1852. Rev. S. P. 
Fernald was called and took charge of the church. A church 
building, now standing and in use, was erected in 1866. 
There is no pastor at present, but Rev. E. P. Moulton of 
Brockton, Mass., has been preaching at the church and has 
received a call which it is understood he will accept. The 
membership is over sixty. 

FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH 

Organized at the house of Thomas French, May 27, 
1820, at Center Tuftonboro, this church has been active 
ever since. There were 17 of the original members. Elder 
Mark Fernald was the first pastor and remained with the 
church for eight years. The church was reorganized in 
1860 and Thomas Bartlett was chosen pastor. There are 



HISTORICAL 



77 



about 65 members and a strong Sunday School in the 
church. A church building was erected in 1839 north of 
Center Tuftonboro, and in 1869 was removed to Center Tuf- 
tonboro proper and rebuilt at a cost of about $2,000. 
An $800 parsonage was built in 1883. Levi Ferguson was 
the last pastor. Winter services are intermittent. 

SECOND CHRISTIAN CHURCH 

The Second Christian Church at Mirror Lake was organ- 
ized in 1864, Nov. 12, by Rev. Daniel Wiggin. Rev. Wiggin 
was pastor of this church for over a quarter of a century. A 
building was erected in 1869 and is still in use. Summer 
services predominate. 

ADVENT CHURCH 

This is called the Second Advent Church of Melvin Vil- 
lage. There are no services in the church now. It was 
organized in 1843 and in 1886 a building was erected. 
Elder Thacher W. Piper was the first pastor and the only 
resident pastor of the church. 



TUFTONBORO SCHOOLS 

Tuftonboro school history is one with that of Wolfeboro. 
Not only is the town in the same school district as its sister 
town, but it is also under the provisions of the Brewster 
legacy. The town voted for school money for support of 



78 



TUFTONBORO 



the schools in its earliest town meetings, the amounts being 
in excess of that required by law. 



MILITARY ACCOUNT 

The Revolutionary War was too soon over to permit 
this town to have a part in its fortunes. But all other wars 
of note in which this country has been concerned has num- 
bered among its supporters of the American cause soldiers 
from this town. The Civil War is the great military event 
of this century's militant side and the part borne by this 
town is an honor to the men who served it and a great 
source of pride to the sons and daughters who own it as 
their home and birthplace. 

On October 15, 1861, there was a special town meeting 
to see if the town would adop tthe provisions of an act au- 
thorizing cities and towns to aid the families of volunteers 
and if so to raise such sum or sums of money as might be 
necessary. Favorable action was taken and one thousand 
dollars pledged on the credit of the town, the selectmen 
being appointed a committee to superintend its expenditure. 
In 1862 a vote was passed to pay two hundred and fifty 
dollars additional bounty; the same year it was voted to 
pay John Peavey five dollars for each person he would enlist 
to fill the town's quota for nine months men. The following 
year they voted three hundred dollars to drafted men or 



HISTORICAL 



79 



their substitutes. In 1864 the town voted fifteen thousand 
dollars to pay soldiers' substitutes and later voted to pay 
one thousand dollars to every citizen of the town who would 
enlist for one year. 

Up to April, 1865, the records show that the number of 
soldiers furnished by this town was 128. 

We give below as complete a list as we have been able to 
gather.

TUFTONBORO 



INCORPORATION 

Tuftonboro was incorporated by the act of the legislat- 
ure approved Dec. 17, 1795. Its incorporation was due 
largely to the endeavors of Tristram Copp, who, with the 
assistance of others of the leading citizens, aroused the 
feeling of the town and secured the following petition: 

June 6, Anno Domi, 1795.

History of Camioonth 



INTRODUCTORY NOTE 

The town of Tamworth is situated in the west central 
part of Carroll County and presents a rather broken surface 
of hills and valleys of beautiful outline. The name suggests 
an old and illustrious English namesake, but there is prob- 
ably no connection between the two towns so widely sep- 
arated. 

The water privileges are marked for their variety and 
usefulness. The beautiful Chocorua Lake is situated in this 
town and is widely famed for its scenic attractions. 

The town is bounded on the north by Albany, on the 
east by Madison and Ossipee, on the south by Ossipee and 
Moultonborough, and on the west by Sandwich. 

Some of the incidents of the settlement of the town are 
of much interest and are illustrative of the indomitable 
spirit of the hardy people who carved their homes from the 
wilderness. Jonathan Philbrick brought corn meal from Gil- 
manton on his back. Henry Blaisdell went to Kingston for 
a supply of meal and took two weeks for the feat while his 
family lived on milk during the time. Gamelial Hatch was 
of an inventive turn of mind and constructed a mortar in 
which he pounded flaxseed into meal which made a substi- 
tute for flour in making bread. It is stated in the Car- 



90 



TAMWORTH 



roll County History that one woman put her children to 
bed and told one of her neighbors that she had put them to 
bed to die. However, help was rendered, food was forthcom- 
ing, and the pangs of hunger appeased. These conditions 
lasted however but few years, for it was not long before mills 
were built and the settlers were relieved of the long trips to 
secure provisions and supplies. 



SETTLEMENT 

The date of the settlement of this town is clouded in 
misty traditions. Many maintain that a settlement was 
made on the shores of Lake Chocorua around 1750, by Cor- 
nelius Campbell and his family. However, there are said to 
be no records that bear out any such belief. Undoubtedly 
there were many hunters and trappers temporarily located 
in this region, and may without hesitancy be called settlers, 
but no real and permanent settlement was made till Mark 
Jewell, in 1772, made his beginning on Stephenson Hill. 
Eichard Jackman, a hunter and trapper, lived in town for 
many years near Jackman Pond, with his Squaw and an 
Indian, Sabitis, and around them were several other Indians 
but these latter left the town on the arrival of the whites. 

But the first real settlement is stated by Rev. Mr. Cogs- 
well in his "Memoir of Rev. Samuel Hidden," written about 
1842, to have been the above mentioned Mark Jewell in 
1772. He was soon followed by his brother Bradbury, a

member of the first board of selectmen in Tamworth, elected 
July 2, 1777. These two men were very prominent in town 
for many years, very active in securing- the town's Revolu- 
tionary War quota. 

It is told that Bradbury Jewell built the first two story 
house in the town, the chimney of which required 14,000 
bricks, for which he paid in continental money $14,000 00 

The following were in town in 1772: Jackman, William 
Eastman, Jonathan Choate, David and Jonathan Philbrick. 
Stephen Mason, came from Moultouboro in 1773. By this 
time several families w 7 ere located, anions which were S t ylva- 
nus Hall's and Hezekiah Hackett's. The town began to fill 
up rapidly from 1773 on. and by 1775 there were 150 inhab- 
itants, Very soon the proprietors built a road from the 
Sandwich line. In 1776 several families settled in the vicin- 
ity of Bear Camp Valley and in other parts of the town. 

The town, having become thoroughly established, was 
called upon to furnish its share of men for the Revolution- 
ary War. September 18, 1775, Elkanah Danforth enlisted, 
the first from Tamworth. Among those enlisting in 1776 
were Joseph Eaton Keniston, Nicholas Kinestone, David 
Kinerson, Joseph Ames. 1777 first called forth Moses Head 
who said to the enlisting officers, "I go to die for my coun- 
try," and before the year had ended lost his life in the ser- 
vice. Abial and Phineas Stevens and Isaac Head also died 
in that war. By 1783 the selectmen reported 53 taxable 
polls. By 1790 Captain George Dodge settled here. He be- 
came leading man in matters of church and state. His 
wealth was superior to that of the other settlers and in

matters of dress and conveniences he and his family far out- 
shown all other citizens of the primitive settlement. From 
this time on the prosperity of the town was assured and be- 
fore 1820 the population had become nearly 1500. In the 
year 1813 the spotted fever made its ravages, then follow- 
ing close on this malady the cold seasons of 1816-17 and 18, 
a period of three years of great discouragement to the set- 
tlers, followed. During those years corn did not ripen, and 
summer frosts destroyed almost every crop. 

So much for the early settlement and establishment of 
the town of Tamworth. Its settlers were strong men, 
hardy and brave, accustomed to the rigors of a cold cli- 
mate and the privations of a wilderness home. With na- 
tures which knew no fear but in which ambition and courage 
were the key note, they battled with the elements and con- 
quered nature in her fastnesses. The Tamworth which they 
builded and the one which we see today bear but little re- 
semblance one to the other, but the names and the imprint 
of these men upon this town are never to be forgotten. 

The township was granted October 14, 1766, to Lieu- 
tenant John Webster and others in sixty-eight equal shares. 
At that time the south line of the town was the Supposed 
head line of Mason's Patent'; but the 'curve line,' as estab- 
lished subsequently, crosses the northwest corner, taking in 
the entire town. William Eastman, Richard Jackman, Da- 
vid Philbrick, and Jonathan Choate were the first settlers in 
1771. Governor Wentworth's reservation is in the south- 
west corner of the town. A committee was appointed by 
the legislature February 22, 1785, to establish the line be- 
tween this town and Sandwich. 



HISTORICAL 



93 



The committee's decision was to be final. January 10, 
1796, a committee was appointed to fix the lines between 
this town and the towns of Burton and Eaton. The deci- 
sion was to be final. The matter came up again, however, 
and another committee was appointed December 23, 1808, 
to establish the lines between Sandwich, Tamworth, Eaton, 
and Burton, and report to the legislature. By an act ap- 
proved January 13, 1837, some territory was severed from 
Ossipee and annexed to this town, and the same was sev- 
ered from Tamworth and anndxed to Ossipee, June 25,1859. 

It is said that Colonel Jonathan Moulton was the orig- 
inal proprietor, the names of the grantees being inserted as 
a legal fiction to enable Governor Benning Wentworth to 
comply with the royal requisites for a charter, none of the 
grantees really having vested rights in the land, but the 
Bryants were evidently in occupation early. James Head 
became a resident, and was the progenitor of a good pos- 
terity; and Israel Gilman and Jacob Fowler owned lands 
here. 

The grantees of Tamworth were Lieut. John Webster, 
James Cochran, Enoch Webster, Jas. Cochran, Jr., Jno. 
Merril, George Abbott, William Rogers, John Moore, An-

TAMWORTH 



CHURCH HISTORY 

Congregational Society— The first preacher in this town 
was Rev. Joshua Nickerson from Cape Cod who ministered 
occasionally here until about 1778. In January, 1792, by 
vote of a special town meeting, Rev. Samuel Hidden of Gil- 
manton was engaged and from that time to the present his 
name has been the household word in the families of Tam- 
worth. At the annual town meeting on March 13 of that 
a year town tax was voted for the support of Mr. Hidden. 
On September 12 the Congregational church was organized 
after much discussion of the creed and other matters con- 
nected therewith. During the winter of 1793-94 about 
thirty persons were converted and by the close of the cen- 
tury the church had enrolled 88 members. Beginning in 1800 
for several years revival and prayer meetings were numerous 
and a large number of conversions resulted. Oh the 13th 
of of February, 1837, after a pastorate of 45 years, Mr. 
Hidden died. In July 1837 Rev. William L. Buflit became 
the successor of Mr. Hidden. This church has had many 
able and faithful pastors as successors of these men but 
no one man has ever so impressed his name and example 
upon the people of this town as did Samuel Hidden. 
Highly educated, wonderfully tactful, untiring in his efforts, 
and of a noble and deeply spiritual nature, his labors were 
bound to bear fruit and the influence of his life and deeds is 
still a potent factor in the life of the town and church he so 
faithfully served. 

In 1781 the Rev. Benj. Randall founded the Freewill 
Baptist Church at Tarn worth Iron Works. Active work was 



HISTORICAL 



103 



continued by the organization for several years until, in 
1812, there were 100 members enrolled. For many years 
there was no house of worship and the residences of the citi- 
zens,, and the school houses served instead. In 1835 the 
church edifice was built. By 1843 171 members were re- 
ported. This wonderful prosperity of the church was due in 
a large measure to the faithful labors of Rev. James Emery 
who died November 22, 1844. In January, 1885, a new 
church was built and dedicated. 

The Second Freewill Baptist Church was organized in 
1822 with a membership of thirty under the care of Rev. 
David Bean. By 1835 there were seventy-three members. 
Five years later its number was 57, and in 1848 it ceased to 
exist. 

The Third Freewill Baptist Church was organized in 
1843 with forty-nine members near Fowler's Mills. After 
1850 it was called the "Second Church." Rev. W. S. Merrill 
was its pastor and it had in 1851 a membership of sixty. 
In 1854 it is no longer on record. 

The South Tamworth Freewill Baptist Church was re- 
ceived into the Quarterly Meeting with sixteen members 
under W. S. Merrill pastor, but the church existed only six- 
teen years from its first organization. From 1863 to 1871 
another "Second" church was in existence. 

The ilethodist Episcopal Church in South Tamworth 
began its existence in 1824 and erected its first house of 
worship in 1832. In the year 1860 this building was re- 
built and greatly improved. 

The church life of Tamworth has been much the same as 



104 



T AM WORTH 



we find in the typical New England town. It has imprinted 
a deep and lasting influence upon the people of the commu- 
nity, and the faithful labors of the many ministers and 
church workers have built up and maintained a strong com- 
munity of interest and christian fellowship for the better- 
ment of this town as a community and municipality of the 
state. 



EDUCATIONAL ITEMS 

In the early years church and state were very closely 
connected, and it was well into the last century before we 
notice the changes in that respect which are the rule today. 
In the beginning the people expected their minister to lead 
not only in spiritual things, but to instruct the youth in the 
elements of practical learning. The word of the preacher 
was law and his views were accepted by young and by old. 
No town was more fortunate in its selection of its ministers 
than was Tamworth when it chose the Rev. Samuel Hidden. 
He entered into the work of instructing the youth with 
marked zest and was highly influential in securing for the 
purposes of education the largest appropriations the town 
could at this time afford, and his influence did not end with 
his death, but his example continues to exercise a potent 
influence over the minds and views and habits of the people 
in the town he served and loved so well. 



HISTORICAL 



105 



One of the marked services which he rendered the town 
was in being instrumental in securing the Tamworth Social 
Library with 600 volumes. He had the entire care of schools 
and when the common schools were not in session he turned 
his own home into a school house, and not only the youth 
of his own town, but that of neighboring towns as well came 
there and received the benefit of his enthusiasm and deep 
learning. It is said that some came a distance of fifty or 
sixty miles for his instruction. 

He prepared several for college and many for the study 
of law and medicine. Mr. Hidden not only taught Latin 
and Greek and other branches of more modern nature, but 
was also a teacher of vocal music. Another writer has aptly 
said "He was the educator of the people." 

In 1801, school money was divided in each district 
according to the number of the children between the ages of 
three and sixteen years. In 1802, the school committee was 
Rev. Mr. Hidden, Capt. George Dodge and Jacob Gilman. 
During this year ten school districts were bounded and 
established. In 1807, it was voted as follows "When Rev. 
Mr. Hidden visits any school and finds the master deficient, 
he is to report him to the selectmen, and the schools kept 
by women shall be inspected in the same manner." In 1819, 
the school purposes appropriation was $450. In 1822, it 
was voted that $20 of school money be expended for the 
purpose of text books for the poor. 

No mention of Tamworth's educational side would 
approach completeness without a word concerning Henry T. 
Hodgkins, who was born the 3d of August, 1849, and began 



106 



TAMWOETH 



teaching at the age of twenty-one. He made the profession 
his life work, and supplemented it by serving as superintend- 
ent, throwing into that work the same enthusiasm as he put 
into his teaching. 



MILITARY ACCOUNT 



The military record of this town, in common with so 
many others of the patriotic state of New Hampshire, is an 
honor to its individual citizens and a source of just pride to 
the town as a whole. Elsewhere we have given the names of 
those who left their homes and families to answer that first 
call to arms in 1776. In 1812, and in the Mexican War we 
were in common with other New England towns, less inclined 
to bear a prominent part than would have been the case had 
the issues of those conflicts been more of interest to this 
part of the country. But the supreme test of the patriotism 
of Tamworth citizens was yet to come. In 1861, the call 
came to answer with the life blood of the flower of our man- 
hood whether or not two nations should be made in this 
country, one slave and the other free. Any comment which 
we might make here upon the towns record in the war of the 
Rebellion would be useless and superfluous. From the best 
sources at hand we have compiled a list of the men who 
rendered service from Tamworth and leave the matter thus. 
These names constitute our Honor Roll and so long as civic 



HISTORICAL 



107 



pride is felt and a patriotic spirit is maintained, so long

Histony of Freedom 



ORGANIZATION 

Freedom was incorporated in 1831, as North Effingham. 
Its territory included that portion of the original Effing- 
ham lying north of the Great Ossipee River. The name 
North Effingham was retained only a little more than a 
year when it was changed to Freedom. The town is bounded 
as follows: on the north by Eaton and Madison, on the east 
by Porter, on the south by Effingham, and on the west by 
Ossipee. A former writer says that there is a small island in 
the Ossipee River on which two states, three counties and 
four towns border; States of Maine and New Hampshire 
Counties of Carrol, N. H., York and Oxford of Maine, and 
the towns of Freedom and Effingham, N. H., and Porter and 
Parsonsfleld, Maine. 

The early settlement of this town is one with that of 
Effingham, so we pass over that portion and refer the reader 
to the account of Effingham for any data on the early set- 
tlement.

CHURCH HISTORY 

Baptist Church— This society was organized July 25, 
1857, by members of former Baptist Church and two from 
the Free Baptist Church, Parsonsfield, Maine. Rev. Wm. 
W. Whitten did much to encourage and assist in its organ- 
ization. Among those who were present at the first meeting 
were Ezekiel Andrews, Abigail Andrews, Mehitable Andrews, 
Orren Stackpole and Hannah Stackpole. At this meeting 
another member, Zillah T. Mills, was voted in. In 1858, 
Rev. Thomas J. Sweet visited this church and rendered 
much valuable assistance. During this year M. H. Sawtelle 
was settled as pastor. In 1862, Rev. Wm. N. Slason, began 
his term as pastor and was succeeded in 1867, by Rev. A. H. 
Estey. 

Other pastors, many of whom were students, have 
labored faithfully with this society and its work has been 
productive of great good. The church has been thoroughly 
repaired from time to time and furnishes a neat and com- 
modious house of worship. 

Christian Church— On June 12, 1858, the "Church of 
Christ" in Freedom was organized by Elder John Buzzell uf 
Parsonsfield, Maine, and Elder King Atkinson of Eaton. 
H. S. McDaniel, Mehitable Bennett, Solomon Andrews, Rola

Andrews, Betsey Harmon, Lovel Towle, Lucy A. Towle, 
Uriah Towle, were the members. Others joined later and on 
October 21, 1866, this church voted to join with Association 
of Christians in Strafford County. Thus was formed the 
first Christian Church in Freedom. The house of worship of 
this society was erected in 1867, at a cost of $3000 by a 
company composed of Elias Towle, Josiah Thurston, 
Horace P. Wood, Alvah M. Davis, Ransellar Towle, and 
others that were paid by the sale of pews and the building 
passed the title to the pew holders and went under the con- 
trol of the Christian Society. Elias Towle left a legacy of 
$1000, the interest of which was devoted to the use of this 
church and also a parsonage of equal value on same condi- 
tions. 

Rev. A. W. Hobbs, first pastor of the society continued 
in that capacity for about nine years. He was succeeded by 
Rev. Charles E. Goodwin and E. K. Amazeen who stayed 
here two and one half years and three years respectively. 
Rev. Nathaniel T. Ridlon became pastor in 1884. M. J. 
Hornsberger is the present pastor. 



MILITARY ACCOUNT 

The part borne by the people of the territory now known 
as Freedom, is merged under the name of Effingham, which 
was the corporate name of the whole of the territory now 
known as Freedom and Effingham.

tice in Alton in 1829, but settled here in 1830, and remained 
until his death in 1867. Besides being an excellent physi- 
cian he was considered one of the best informed Masons in 
the state and the order of the Eastern Star bears his name.

PART II 



Census-1908 



The population of the towns of Ossipee, Tuftonboro, 
Wolfeboro, Tarn worth, Freedom and Effingham has been 
arranged in families where it has been possible. In addition 
to the resident living members, the names of the non- 
resident members are included. It should be borne in mind 
that this plan does not include the names of all former resi- 
dents of this town, as the names of the non-residents appear 
only when one or both of the parents are still living in the 
town. After the name of each non-resident will be found 
the present address, when such address has been given to us. 
Non-residents are indicated by the (*) . 

When a daughter in a family has married, her name 
taken in marriage appears after her given name in parenthe- 
sis, the name preceded by a small m, thus: (m ). 

Following the names of the population is the occupations. 
To designate these we have used the more common abbre- 
viations and contractions, as follows: Farmer— far; car- 
penter—car; railroad service— R R ser; student, a member 
of an advanced institution of learning — stu; pupil, a member 
of a lower grade of schools (including all who have reached
